Tharoor has been under fire in the party for praising Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

"Congress President Sonia Gandhi has accepted the recommendation of the AICC disciplinary committee to remove Shashi Tharoor from the list of spokespersons of the AICC with immediate effect. The Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee had submitted a complaint in this regard to the disciplinary committee," said party general secretary,organization,JanardanDwivedi in the press release.

Kerala Congress had recently sent a report against Tharoor over his Modi praise and had sought action against him.

The state unit of the party had said that it was hurt with Tharoor's Modi praise.

The state unit also reminded Tharoor how the party workers had worked hard for his victory in the Lok Sabha elections.

The former Union minister also faces heat after fresh revelations that his wife Sunanda Pushkar had died due to poisoning.

Congress it used to be a big party no one could oppose it now ...its just fanatical parties ruling
 
There is something fishy in Sunanda Pushkar death case. He was a minister when she died. Now after losing power he tried to be in good books of BJP for obvious reasons. Will we ever know the truth about his relations with Mehr Tarar and possible role of ISI?
 
Taroor is actually one of the sane minds of Congress and excellent at debating, only wish he would not have killed his wife

He's been involved in more controversies like the IPL sweat equity saga, misuse of public funds etc. Comes out as the most diplomatic congress party member because the rest of em are even worse.
 
Congress is shooting itself in the foot. They are utterly confused as to how to react to Modi's masterstrokes every now & then. I was eagerly waiting to see how Congress would react to Modi's overtures to one of their leaders! hahaha.. they failed.. Modi & Amit Shah must be having a quiet laugh! :lol:
